redMaGiC: Selecting Luminous Red Galaxies from the DES Science Verification Data
E. Rozo, E. S. Rykoff, A. Abate +84
We introduce redMaGiC, an automated algorithm for selecting Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs). The algorithm was specifically developed to minimize photometric redshift uncertainties in…
The DES Science Verification Weak Lensing Shear Catalogues
M. Jarvis, E. Sheldon, J. Zuntz +92
We present weak lensing shear catalogues for 139 square degrees of data taken during the Science Verification (SV) time for the new Dark Energy Camera (DECam) being used for the Da…
The Difference Imaging Pipeline for the Transient Search in the Dark Energy Survey
R. Kessler, J. Marriner, M. Childress +60
We describe the difference imaging pipeline (DiffImg) used to detect transients in deep images from the Dark Energy Survey Supernova program (DES-SN) in its first observing season…
Automated Transient Identification in the Dark Energy Survey
D. A. Goldstein, C. B. D'Andrea, J. A. Fischer +64
We describe an algorithm for identifying point-source transients and moving objects on reference-subtracted optical images containing artifacts of processing and instrumentation. T…
DECam integration tests on telescope simulator
M. Soares-Santos, J. Annis, M. Bonati +31
The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is a next generation optical survey aimed at measuring the expansion history of the universe using four probes: weak gravitational lensing, galaxy clus…
